WILLIAM HORACE AINSCOW, OF LINDFIELD, NEAR SYDNEY, NEW SOUTH WALES} AUSTRALIA SUPPORTING MEANS FOR LIQUID-FUEL BURNERS Original application filed October 5, 1926, Serial No. 139,658, and in Australia November 5, 1925. Divided and this application filed November 10, 1927.

This invention relates tospray burners used for atomizing and projecting liquid fuel into furnaces and the like and has been specially devised in order to provide improved supporting means for liquid fuel burners whereby a burner is adj ustably supported outwardly of and in the furnace mouth and is readily accessible for manipulation and may be adjusted, or advanced andretired in or upon said means, in relation thereto and to the furnace mouth in order to assist in regulation 0.

- the flame resulting from the atomized fuel projected from the burner.

The improved supporting means for liquid fuel burners comprise a frusto-conical flame concentrator and indraught guard aftixable in the furnace mouth, arms secured thereto and within said guard and projecting outwardly and parallel tothe axis thereof and .2 a spider or brackets adapted to carry the burner and to be moved longitudinally upon ence to the accompanying drawings in which Figure 1 is a diametrical elevation of one arrangement of the improved supporting means for liquid fuelburners with the forward end of a burner shown in dotted lines,

Figure 2 is a rear end elevation of the same.

Referring to the drawings a bell mouthed flame concentrator and indraught guard 9 I ,which is aflixablein the furnace mouth by lugs 10, fixed to said guard through rivets 11,

has securedthereto by rivets 12 the inner ends of a plurality of spaced arms 13 which project beyond the mouth of the concentrator. spider 14 having bores complementary to the arms 13 slides thereon and hasa central bore 15 in which the inner or forward end 16 of the burner 17, is positioned and secured-by connecting thereon the bell mouthed flame deflector 18.

In use the burner is, readily slidable longitudinally upon the arms in order to adjust Serial No. 232,438.

the position of the nozzle of the burner and the flame concentrator thereon in relation to the furnace mouth.

Having now fully tained my said invention and the manner in which it is to be performed I declare that what I claim is 2- 1. A device for adjustably supporting a liquid fuel burner-in a furnace mouth and regulating the indrawing of air to the furnace,

f comprising a frusto-conical flame concentrator and iii-draught guard adapted to be aiiixed in the'furnace mouth with its larger end portion extending out of the latter, arms mounted within said flame concentrator and in-draught guard and projecting outwardly and parallel to the axis thereof, and means free to slide upon said arms and adapted to receive and support the burner whereby the latter may be adjusted with respect to said flame concentrator and in-draught guard and said furnace mouth.

2. A device for adjustably supporting a liquid fuel burner in a furnace mouth and regulating the indrawing of air to the furnace comprising a frusto-conical flame concentrator and in-draught guard adapted to be aflixed in the furnace mouth, with its larger end portion extending out of the latter, arms mounted within said flame concentrator and in-draught guard and projecting outwardly and parallel to the axis thereof, and a spider slida'bly mounted upon said arms and adapted to engage the forward end of'the burner, whereby the latter may be adjusted with respect to said flame concentrator and indraught guard and said furnace mouth.
